PREVIEW: ADOBE PREMIER PRO AND APPLE FINAL CUT PRO.

  > Versus <   

Dear All !

The top spots in mid-level video editing are held by Apple and Adobe, and many people are looking for a specific comparison between Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro (FCP).
FCP tends to be more popular amongst professional editors, although this can also be attributed to the popularity of Mac vs Windows in the same market. It is often said that FCP is more stable and/or faster than Premiere, but this is more a reflection on the operating system than the software. Having said this, in my experience Premiere is very stable on a well-configured Windows system.

Adobe Photoshop: the basics

Introduction
What is Photoshop?
Adobe Photoshop is image-editing software. It allows you to transform scanned photographs, slides and original artwork in many ways, for example, by cropping, rotation, resizing and by creating special effects using filters ranging in effect from blurring to mosaics.
Photoshop combines a full range of painting, editing and image composition tools, sophisticated selection tools, and methods for adjusting levels of grey and colour in continuous-tone images.

Lesson 1: Scanning, saving and set-up
To scan images into your computer, you need a scanner attached to your computer and scanning software installed onto your computer. Scanning software is supplied with the scanners, often Photoshop.  You can also buy Photoshop independently.
